Open Internet Explorer... from the Toolbar, select View, Text Size... reset
it to a smaller size.

Still no luck. Any other ideas on what is causing this problem?

Ensure Outlook Express is closed when you change the size.... since OE is
part of IE, if you make changes to IE while OE is open, they won't have any
effect.

One more try:

From the Control Panel, click on Printers & Faxes, then right click on the
printer in question and select Properties.

From the Advanced tab, select it to print direct to printer and not use the
print spooler. Then we can see if we can eliminate one of the potential
elements along the way.
